didnt have the right kinda razor and was probably to high. at first it was really hard to get between the pcb and the heat spreader and thats when i did it . the tip of the razor just sunk into the pcb from the pressure and when i moved it it sliced it
honestly im a ******* idiot

meh I did the same thing on my first one, I want to de-lid this one so bad but I alrdy made one chip only run in single channel memory mode

wtg my high little friend , if i want to remove a IHS i'll be sure to get a i3 Ivy and not a I5 that way it won't hurt the wallet as bad as for doing it while high, come on man it's no fun doing it and not be high atleast when high you don't feel so sad as you'll be to far gone to even realize it' broke let alone express it till it wears off

temps are low cause i only used aida 64 if i were to use prime 95 ,linx or ibt my temps would be around 5c-10c higher not to comfertable with temps past 90c -95c that is hot

Yeah,
ouch with the whole de-lidding thing.. Personally if I get that I'll just stop and maybe even let the CPU sit in the sun to help the glue melt a bit. (it might?) But from what I've practised on so far it should be fine. You just have to not wedge it at all and do a clean cut all around otherwise you will nick the PCB of it like you have :/

I actually found de-lidding rather simple on the P4's at least.. Seeing as I've done so much homework today I plan to extensively test the Celerons to see if I can get a working celeron de-lidded and 100% working. The only way that I damaged one of the P4's is that I attempted to remove Intels glue with the razor.. hmm

LOL honestly if I didn't learn from posts like yours I would do the same thing. Being an avid stoner myself, and preferring to do high- tech high-risk surgery while high, I almost feel like I was supposed to be you, but decided to research for countless hours instead of going for it!Edited by lukem5 - 11/10/12 at 5:03am
